I just cannot believe that someone would even try and get away with something like this. True story in Washington. A lady takes her dog to a groomer and notices that he is whiney and not himself afterwards. As she's trying to...

Kaldonya As of the last update that I've heard, the grooming place has been shut down. But other than that, I don't know of anything that has happened to the actual groomer.

Kaldonya I'm sorry that you don't believe it. It does sound rather bizarre, doesn't it?!? But it's true. Here's a news link to support it: www.kirotv.com/news/11016140/detail.html.

Kaldonya I found out with my husband that he "snacks" all day long at work. If I don't provide snacks for him to take and keep in his cubicle, he will eat stuff in the vending machines there. Same with lunches. He takes a lunch every day, occasionally will eat out -...

Kaldonya Eating too late? Not necessarily. I guess it depends on what he does after he eats. Does he wind down for the evening? Then yes, it *possibly* could play a factor in it. How much more during the day does he eat? How often? If he's able to eat smaller meals...

Kaldonya Yes, strange as it may sound, painting an actual cat. I don't know what kind of paint is used, maybe it's a type of hair dye. I don't know...but all the pictures that I saw, there were some REALLY WEIRD ones.

Kaldonya We wear big sweaters over our regular clothes and slippers over our socks. With the two toddlers, I put long underwear under the winter pjs and slippers over them to keep them warm. Our house is only 10yrs old, but after moving in, we found out that the people...

Kaldonya No, according to the article, they said that the downside to this program is that the child is completely imprisoned as well for those 3 years.

Kaldonya I think six months is better than 3 years old. At least a six month old is not aware of his/her surroundings as much and the transition would be way less traumatic. A 3 year old has such separation anxieties anyway, this is sure to make it worse. Imagine the...

Kaldonya They are currently in this prison because they met and married in prison and had a child together. So now they are allowed to live in this place until the child turns 3 (which is less than 6 months), and then each parent has approx 6-7 years left on their...

Kaldonya This is a true story. They even profiled one particular family. Yes, I agree. I think in both the short and long run, it will cause tremendous mental anguish for the child.

Kaldonya I'm sorry. I did not mean total stranger as in not a family member. Rather what I meant was a stranger to that child. Suddenly not being with his/her parents anymore and having to go live with people that he/she doesn't know (or barely knows if they came to...

Kaldonya Oh that's probably it. I did have a couple of comments that were just totally my opinion, but were not in alignment with the original poster's point of view. Oh well...I'd rather voice my opinion and be open and honest instead of just agreeing with someone...

Kaldonya Oh I LOVE the name Asher!!! I wanted my youngest son's middle name to be Asher, but my husband would NOT agree to it at all. He picked his grandpa's name instead (Albert), which is okay. *IF* I were to have another son, I would INSIST on Asher though. I had...

Kaldonya Depending on what kind of reaction you have or how you are allergic to jewelry, there is some ways around being able to wear them. My mom is horribly allergic to anything less than pure 24k gold, and can almost never wear earrings. Rings are bad. So what she...

Kaldonya Thank you. That is my wish also that other people have the insight as well. Unfortunately, I think with each generation getting more and more disrespectful and out of control, I think that the lessons are not there. But since our country is NOT in total...

Kaldonya Um...that sounds interesting, to say the least. Sugar and lemon juice on pancakes. Is that good? I've never heard of that before. Isn't sugar and lemon juice lemonade? Do they taste tart or sweet?
